Out on the mean streets of the U.S. organic foods industry, Walmart has stepped onto the corner with both guns drawn. On Thursday, the superstore behemoth announced its plan to partner with Wild Oats (which you may recognize as a former subsidiary of Whole Foods) to offer a line of organic goods at unprecedentedly low prices in 2,000 of its U.S. stores. To start, the line will offer primarily canned goods and other pantry staples that will cost up to 25 percent less than those of other organic brands.
At first blush, this appears to be great news. Cheaper, more accessible organic food -- isn't that one of the prerequisites for the kind of healthy food system we've all been waiting for? The New York Times notes that Walmart's big move could ultimately create a larger supply of organic goods, pushing down organic prices in the long run.
From The New York Times:
"We're removing the premium associated with organic groceries," said Jack L. Sinclair, executive vice president of Walmart U.S.'s grocery division. The Wild Oats organic products will be priced the same as similar nonorganic brand-name goods.
If that sounds suspicious to anyone familiar with organic growing practices, it should. For those not as well-versed, we're here to help! We spoke with CoachMark Smallwood, executive director of The Rodale Institute in Kutztown, Penn., about how Walmart could manage to offer such low prices, and what that might mean for organic farmers across the country.
Smallwood explains that the concept of a "premium" associated with organic food is misleading, because the price of an organic good reflects the true cost of its production.
"The issue is that there aren't the subsidies available to organic farmers that there are [for conventional farmers.] So there's a question in my mind about how Walmart is going to pull this off and be able to make profit," Smallwood said. "And for them to even come out and make that statement before they've started is a huge question mark. Somebody's going to have to pay, and my hope is that it's not the organic farmer."
Smallwood also shared his concern that if Walmart were to incentivize large-scale organic production, industrial organic practices would become more widespread. In this model, farmers adhere to just the bare minimum of organic standards and ultimately end up depleting soil health on a piece of land, abandoning it, and moving on to another.
"Will a large agricultural operation come in and buy up tens of small family farms and put them all under one name, and then create that slash-and-burn model?" Smallwood said. "That's what I'm afraid of. That's the [possible] downside."

Organic food

Organic foods are foods produced by organic farming. While the standards differ worldwide, organic farming in general features cultural, biological, and mechanical practices that foster cycling of resources, promote ecological balance, and conserve biodiversity. Synthetic pesticides and chemical fertilizers are not allowed, although certain approved pesticides may be used. In general, organic foods are also not processed using irradiation, industrial solvents, or synthetic food additives.

Currently, the European Union, the United States, Canada, Mexico, Japan and many other countries require producers to obtain special certification in order to market food as organic within their borders. In the context of these regulations, organic food is food produced in a way that complies with organic standards set by national governments and international organizations. Although the produce of kitchen gardens may be organic, selling food with the organic label is regulated by governmental food safety authorities, such as the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) or European Commission.

Cleveland Clinic

The Cleveland Clinic is a multispecialty academic hospital located in Cleveland, Ohio that is owned and operated by the Cleveland Clinic Foundation, an Ohio nonprofit corporation established in 1921.
In addition to their flagship hospital in Cleveland, Cleveland Clinic also operates affiliated facilities in Florida, Nevada, Canada, and Abu Dhabi.

History

Early beginnings

Cleveland Clinic grew out of the surgical practice of Frank J. Weed (died 1891) at 16 Church Street on the near west side of Cleveland. The practice was purchased by his two assistants, Frank E. Bunts and George Washington Crile. In 1892 they brought Crile's cousin, William E. Lower into the practice. In 1897 they moved to the Osborn Building on Prospect Avenue in downtown Cleveland. Crile, Lower and Bunts became professors at Cleveland medical schools, and each would be elected president of the Academy of Medicine.

Crile organized the American military hospital in Paris in 1915, and later led the United States Army Base Hospital No. 4, in Rouen, France. It was the first contingent of the United States Army to see active duty in Europe during the First World War. Bunts and Lower also served in the Rouen hospital. In his autobiography, Crile reports that, while in France, the three doctors discussed starting a new medical center in Cleveland upon their return.

San José, Costa Rica

San José ("Saint Joseph", Spanish:San José, pronounced:[saŋ xoˈse]) is the capital of Costa Rica, head of the province of San José, and the nation's largest city. Located in the Central Valley, San José is the seat of national government, the focal point of political and economic activity, and the major transportation hub of this Central American nation. The population of San José Canton is 288,054, though the metropolitan area stretches beyond the canton limits and comprises a third of the country's population. It is named in honor of Joseph of Nazareth.

Though few people live in the city center, it is the most important working area of the country, which brings in more than a million people daily. Despite its problems, according to studies in Latin America, San José is still one of the safest and least violent cities in the region. In 2006, the city was appointed Ibero-American Capital of Culture.

San José is the sixth most important destination in Latin America, according to The MasterCard Global Destinations Cities Index 2012. San José ranked 15th in the world’s fastest growing destination cities by visitor cross-border spending.

Whole Foods Market

Whole Foods Market Inc. is an American supermarket chain specializing in organic food that opened on September 20, 1980, in Austin, Texas, its current headquarters. As of September 2015, the company has 91,000 employees and 431 supermarkets among the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, and has its main produce procurement office in Watsonville, California.

As of 2015, founder John Mackey and Walter Robb are co-CEOs of the publicly traded company, with John Elstrott as chairman. Whole Foods Market became a Fortune 500 company in March 2005 and is the 30th largest retailer in the U.S. based on 2014 revenue.

History

Early years

In 1978, Mackey and Renee Lawson borrowed $45,000 from family and friends to open a small natural foods store called SaferWay in Austin, (the name being a spoof of Safeway). When the two were evicted from their apartment for storing food products in it, they decided to live at the store. Because it was zoned for commercial use, there was no shower stall, so they bathed using a water hose attached to their dishwasher.

Walmart is rushing into the Organic Food business with over 70 organic items on the shelves at its 3,800 US stores. We shopped the nearest Walmart Neighborhood Market & then purchased equivalents at Whole Foods. The price comparisons & quality are SHOCKING!
Let us know if the food we made with these organic items is the kind of stuff you'd like to eat?! Burger Balls & Sweet PotatoChiliMac!

Out on the mean streets of the U.S. organic foods industry, Walmart has stepped onto the corner with both guns drawn. On Thursday, the superstore behemoth announced its plan to partner with Wild Oats (which you may recognize as a former subsidiary of Whole Foods) to offer a line of organic goods at unprecedentedly low prices in 2,000 of its U.S. stores. To start, the line will offer primarily canned goods and other pantry staples that will cost up to 25 percent less than those of other organic brands.
At first blush, this appears to be great news. Cheaper, more accessible organic food -- isn't that one of the prerequisites for the kind of healthy food system we've all been waiting for? The New York Times notes that Walmart's big move could ultimately create a larger supply of organic goods, pushing down organic prices in the long run.
From The New York Times:
"We're removing the premium associated with organic groceries," said Jack L. Sinclair, executive vice president of Walmart U.S.'s grocery division. The Wild Oats organic products will be priced the same as similar nonorganic brand-name goods.
If that sounds suspicious to anyone familiar with organic growing practices, it should. For those not as well-versed, we're here to help! We spoke with CoachMark Smallwood, executive director of The Rodale Institute in Kutztown, Penn., about how Walmart could manage to offer such low prices, and what that might mean for organic farmers across the country.
Smallwood explains that the concept of a "premium" associated with organic food is misleading, because the price of an organic good reflects the true cost of its production.
"The issue is that there aren't the subsidies available to organic farmers that there are [for conventional farmers.] So there's a question in my mind about how Walmart is going to pull this off and be able to make profit," Smallwood said. "And for them to even come out and make that statement before they've started is a huge question mark. Somebody's going to have to pay, and my hope is that it's not the organic farmer."
Smallwood also shared his concern that if Walmart were to incentivize large-scale organic production, industrial organic practices would become more widespread. In this model, farmers adhere to just the bare minimum of organic standards and ultimately end up depleting soil health on a piece of land, abandoning it, and moving on to another.
"Will a large agricultural operation come in and buy up tens of small family farms and put them all under one name, and then create that slash-and-burn model?" Smallwood said. "That's what I'm afraid of. That's the [possible] downside."

Organic food

Organic foods are foods produced by organic farming. While the standards differ worldwide, organic farming in general features cultural, biological, and mechanical practices that foster cycling of resources, promote ecological balance, and conserve biodiversity. Synthetic pesticides and chemical fertilizers are not allowed, although certain approved pesticides may be used. In general, organic foods are also not processed using irradiation, industrial solvents, or synthetic food additives.

Currently, the European Union, the United States, Canada, Mexico, Japan and many other countries require producers to obtain special certification in order to market food as organic within their borders. In the context of these regulations, organic food is food produced in a way that complies with organic standards set by national governments and international organizations. Although the produce of kitchen gardens may be organic, selling food with the organic label is regulated by governmental food safety authorities, such as the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) or European Commission.
